  • Ensure consistency, accuracy, and quality across all samples and prototypes
  • Meet deadlines in a fast-paced product development environment
  • Use standardized tools, templates, and sewing methods to ensure repeatable production quality
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe fit lab/sample room/production workspace

    • Cotton twill, canvas, sherpa
  • Close attention to detail with strong quality control skills
  • Strong time management and ability to handle multiple samples/projects
  • Effective communication skills for cross-functional collaboration
